Look at E3 this year. Its lame. Only Sony and Nintendo actually came with "new" games that were just for their console.

Everything else is the same old multiplatform crap. Then all these stupid gimmicks for motion contorls.

Day 2 and its already the lamest E3 ever. Much better places for them to debut this game.

umm ok for all of you who are saying E3 is dead, it's not, I just came back today from the first day and it was AMAZING.

It was jumping with hype, game developers and electronic technology. I understand that E3 hasn't done the best in the past in terms of policies and ways of doing things, it has slipped, but this year E3 is back to doing its policies and invites the way it used to and it is alive more than ever.

Oh and spirittheif, Sony and Nintendo weren't the only developers there to bring new games for their consoles... please guys research and wait for coverage before you speak, you embarrass yourselves and make false assumptions. Microsoft was also there to promote upcoming games for the 360 as well as full body motion sensor technology.

It was a great 1st day! We had the LA mayor make an address in front of the west hall and lots of exclusive hands on stuff with EA games, Microsoft's xbox 360, nintendo, nvidia, G4 TV coverage, Ubisoft, Bethesda, Squaresoft Enix, Sega, Capcom etc... it was rad. And Anet wasn't there nor were they ever on the E3 list of booths/exhibitors for this year. NC Soft is also not there.

I could believe they're also there for the perks they're given for being able to check out everything on the show floor, for... being part of the gaming industry. Not that I'm complaining, but I thought there was something saying this event would be open to the general public?

yeah...even the network news carried the story last year that E3 was more or less dead in the water, as most dev companies were going to discontinue participation in coming years.

I believe the organizers lost their exclusive contracts to host, or something. Don't know the exact details, but while they aren't "far from dead," E3 is most certainly in the penultimate stage of senescence, and no one cares anymore as they will be long dead 3 years from now.

Yeah some of the changes they made in the past few years (car show??) really set me off. I've been wondering for a long time now when a new one will come and take its place, but in the meantime, we still got stuff like Blizzcon and CES to keep us entertained for now.

I don't think Arenanet is going to show at E3 simply because they aren't attending. And besides that, they've never really shown a lot at E3 anyway, they've mostly concentrated on PAX.
You're crazy as hell it was at E3 that they introduced a damn playable demo of the Guild Wars game and everyone got to participate that wasn't even there.

Well, what do you make of the "Construction Site" piece?

(I know it is listed as GW1 concept art, but where do you think it is from?)

Well the construction site piece is attributed to GW1, while the snow battle says it's GW2. Also, in that artwork competition from a few months back where Snow Battle and Dociu's other picture with the mole holes won, the latter was also attributed to GW1 on the site I saw it on.

Looks like the construction of some part of the mainland cities in Cantha, maybe Kaineng?
